Ad for Batteries

Motivation: Batteries give us power and we'd probably be screwed with out them.

Ad: A little kid has just been given a pacemaker. The doctors warn him that, since batteries don't exist, he'll have to use an extension cord for the rest of his life. For a while things are great we see him running and playing with a giant bundle of cords unspooling as he tears around. The audience is probably all like, "Aw, things aren't so bad!" Then we see him run towards the swing set. hard cut to his body, shot from behind, swinging in the rain. His mother, half lit, screaming and crying in front of his lifeless body. Close with card: "Batteries: we need 'em"

Budget: Only 50 big ones if we can get a child actor with an extension cord pacemaker.
